I don't think (but as I don't use it I'd welcome corrections) that
Opera gets information about whether the connection is up from
NetworkManager.

What kind of modem? DSL, Cable, 3G/HSPDA? How are you connected?
Wireless, Wired etc.

I think we need a lot more information about your network setup before
we can help ;o)
